2.0 out of 5 stars I Really Wanted to Like This Book, March 2, 2001

This review is from: Spellcaster (Paperback)

Having read a J. Edward Ames short story that hit me like a baseball bat right between the eyes ("A Stain Upon Her Honor") I took umbrage at SAXFAM's dismissive review of Spellcaster, mentally rolling up my sleeves in preparation for the drubbing I was going to give this obviously thick-headed reviewer with the funny name. But having received a used copy of the out-of-print Spellcaster through Amazon.com I now have to admit that SAXFAM's assessment is dead-on . . . dammit. And me with outstanding orders for the three other out-of-print Ames novels listed . . .

This review is from: Spellcaster (Paperback)

J Edward Ames uses all the standard elements (aka cliches to B-movie haters) in this tale of voodoo and mad scientists. The expected characters (Good Looking Female Victim To Be, Hardworking Cop, and Well Informed Good Guy) are nice to hang around with while they go through all the far too familiar motions to move the shop worn plot along. Worth a look if you like this kind of thing, otherwise skip it.
